    Is their end goal to better mankind, no matter who gets in the way? If so then yeah, I'd say that counts.

    MOSCOW - A monument to the enema, a procedure many people would rather not think about, has been unveiled at a spa in the southern Russian city of Zheleznovodsk.

    The bronze syringe bulb, which weighs 800 pounds and is held by three angels, was unveiled at the Mashuk-Akva Term spa, the spa's director said Thursday.

    "There is no kitsch or obscenity, it is a successful work of art," Alexander Kharchenko told The Associated Press. "An enema is almost a symbol of our region."
    From here.

    Enemas creep me out. I was reading about them a while back, and most web sites that teach you how to use enemas also have sections and stories about people who found eroticism after flushing their blocked poo. They then continued to do it just for satisfaction.

    It was almost hot, except for all the flushing of the butt.

    Lorry carrying 12m bees overturns
    Motorists on Canada's biggest highway ended up with a bee in their bonnet after a truck transporting 12m of the insects overturned.

    The lorry was carrying 330 crates of honey bees when it tipped over on a ramp in St Leonard, New Brunswick.

    Bee experts were called in to help deal with the accident on the Trans-Canada Highway.

    Royal Canadian Mounted Police said a downpour of rain helped to contain the bees in and around the vehicle.

    "Bees don't like the rain... thousands of bees are hanging on the back of this truck and on the pavement right behind," said police spokesman Derek Strong.

    Who knew they measured quantities of bees in meters over there?

    yea, so that struck you as a bit odd too, huh?

    Technically mario, as it's Canada, they'd measure bees in metres.

    How is this freaking awesome?

    BEES man BEES!!! It's like SCIENCE! but with more BEES.

    Yes but they fell out of a truck, had to sit in the rain for a few hours and were re-captured. If they'd escaped from the truck, overthrew their captors and went off to start their own socialist bee-topia I could understand putting it here, but this incident just looks like it was an unpleasant experience for everyone involved.

    Don't we already have a Bee thread? This may have accidentally been misfiled. It's still awesome, but I think the Bee thread had jurisdiction.

    330 Crates of Bees Man's origin?

    EDIT: I'll leave this remark up because it's funny. Sometimes I just forget to keep my sarcasm detectors on.

    Might it be 12 million bees? I'm not sure how many bees fit into 330 crates, but it sounds like it could possibly fit...
  • edited July 2008
    That's more than twenty.

    330 Crates of Bees Man's indecision must be monumental compared to Twenty Bees Man's.

    While Twenty Bees Man is deciding what to get on his burger, 300 Crates of Bees Man is still sitting at home deciding whether to take a shower or bath.

    I don't know, the BEES may not have accomplished much because of the rain, but do you seriously expect the BEES to do things in the rain!?

    I believe it was a test run for the greater escape plan. And it would of gone perfect if not for that meddling Mother Nature. CURSE YOU MOTHER NATURE. Now we just wait for the great escape of those dang awesome bees.

    Then again, they’ve probably already done it, and the government is covering it up! Either way I’m right.

    All these moments will be lost in time, like bees in the rain.

    No no, it's not bees. It's BEES!

    Wow.... is that Nicholas Cage? Seriously? That was horribly acted!

    BEES IN THE RAIN! Could this be a possible sequel to Snakes on a Plane?!

    HELLZ YEAH IT COULD BE!!!

    That movie clip makes me want to see The Wicker Man, and then to make fun of it.
  • edited July 2008
    Do it, the movie is actually pretty good, although Cage really should have seen it coming.
